What is the purpose of this test?
The GI360™ Essentials Profile Stool Test Kit helps you understand what's happening inside your digestive system. This test looks at your stool, or poop, to check for any signs of problems. It can show us if there are any issues with digestion, absorption of nutrients, or if there are any harmful bacteria or parasites in your gut. By analyzing the stool sample, we can get a better idea of your overall digestive health and how well your body is absorbing the important nutrients it needs.
Using this test, we can identify possible causes of digestive discomfort, such as bloating, gas, or diarrhea. If you've been having any unexplained digestive symptoms, this test can help us figure out what might be going on. It can also provide us with important information to create a plan to improve your digestive health and overall well-being.
